There are a number of posters on this site that seem to wait for a newbie to make a mistake. Those posters are typically the first repliers to the "questionable posts" and act as if they are mods. If you want to be a mod, I suggest you contact the Admin and apply for the position. Self righteously correcting some noob for a minor infraction is more likely to convince them they would rather not be here, or possibly that this isn't the hobby for them. Someone posting in the wrong forum is the least of the worries here. I'd prefer someone focus their energy on all the spam posts that flood this board.
If you know how this forum works, then you'd know Admin doesn't respond to ANY messages. We got used to that a long time ago. I don't await mistakes from newbies, as for example dylansdad will back up, and I offer help and guidance to anyone who asks for it. That said, if you post the same thing ten times, in the wrong thread it WILL be pointed out, because it's the only way they learn. I've been a Mod, I've run my own forum, I've stepped back from both, but it doesn't mean I won't comment. Just be glad I don't post stupid gifs on all my comments and that I can use the English language correctly.
